5.11 REVERSING CABLE EXIT DIRECTION ON MEASURING HEAD
The cables are normally connected to the Measuring Head such that both cables point
upwards. This is to facilitate routing the cables through conduit. However, there are
instances when it is desirable to have the top cable on head half “A” (cable A) point
downwards to allow for the installation of a shroud or weather protecting enclosure directly
above the head. The following procedure is for changing the top cable exit direction:
1.
Disconnect ac power to the Metering Unit.
2.
Disconnect the top cable from the Measuring Head.
3.
Note the original position of the guide pins and guide sockets (located at he corners of
the connector). Remove the guide pins and sockets.
4.
Gently pull out the connector pin housing being careful to not pull excessively on the
delicate cable wires. Rotate the pin housing ½ a turn (180°) and reinsert into the
connector.
5.
Reinstall the guide pins and sockets in a pattern directly opposite the original position
(i.e. replace the sockets with the pins and the pins with the sockets).
6.
Reconnect the cables to the head and reapply ac power to the Metering Unit.
WARNING:
WITH THE SYSTEM ON A LIVE BUS, THE AC POWER IS OFF, AND THE CABLE
DISCONNECTED FROM THE HEAD, A SHOCK HAZARD EXISTS ON THE MEASURING
HEAD CONNECTOR TERMINALS.
